# How to build

### Checkout with submodules

This repository accesses the required WTF handbook's content as a git submodule. Therefore, make sure to check out this repository including its submodule:

```
git clone --recurse-submodules https://git.wtf-eg.de/wtf-eg/handbuch-gen.git
```

### python based - sphinx

First create a Python 3 virtual environment using the venv module included with Python 3.


1. Create a virtual Python environment: ```python3 -m venv venv```
2. Activate virtual Python environment: ```source venv/bin/activate```
3. install needed packages from ```requirements.txt```: ```pip install -r requirements.txt```

For generating the images from plantuml-sources it needs also [Plantuml](https://plantuml.com/).
For pdf output the latex builder is used, so it needs also an installed latex and pdflatex.

### Running the document generation via make

The top level directory contains a Makefile, 
for generation with all output formats  use

`````
make bundle
`````
